Descriptive namePictometry 2016 9 inch Orthophoto Tiles
File namept16sor9
Spatial domainEastern Pima County
AbstractPictometry uses a grid of approximately one-mile square areas called "sectors" that define a project area.

pt16sor9 displays individual 9-inch orthophoto tiles areas where each ortho tile covers a square area consisting of one full sector approximately one mile square.

The tiles defined by this layer represent the areas covered by each of the 9-inch resolution orthophotos in JPG format in the Pictometry 2016 data "AZPIMA16-TILES-9INCH" directory.

This pt16sor9 layer has been appended with pt16sor3 to make pt16sor39.
Known errors/qualificationsWhile these pictometry sectors are approximately 1 mile square, they are not based on PLSS sections and are offset considerably from the PLSS section grid.
